Hi Kathy & Jerry,It's good to get your posting and to know that you are finally doing some SAILING! It was very hot here today-almost too hot! Moira and I went out to the Lavender Farm Festival. We did not stay long as it was too, too hot.

The Hospice Society had a fund raiser there. People were buying butterflies and releasing them in the name of someone who had died. There were monarchs and painted ladies. They were all released at the same time and it was quite neat. I wanted to get one but they were all sold out.

I've cleaned up all my garlic but did not get very much. Now I have to get the rest of the cherries off the tree or we'll have a problem with the cherry fly next year. Patrick has not been in touch with me since before the reunion. I'd like him to do the picking. Be safe!

Keeping warm in Alaskan waters.

Kathy & Jerry.......love exploring the Gulf Islands and coastal waters of British Columbia on our sailboat. We also have become fond of exploring central Mexico during the winter months, and hanging out in the small town of Ajijic. We hope our photos and blogging will give you the chance to experience the same, and maybe inspire you to do some exploring yourself.

New crew member

We welcome aboard our newest crew.... Maggie. She joined our family this spring on March 23. She celebrated her first birthday on April 27th. She is very smart, so we are hopeful that she will learn her new duties quickly.

Our Boat

Splendid Mane is a 2002 Beneteau 393, 40 feet in lenght. We have radar, color chartplotter, 56 hp yanmar engine, autopilot, autostream feathering propeller, dingy with 6hp engine, dodger with full enclosure, two staterooms, two heads, fully equipped galley, and lots more extras. It is a safe, comfortable boat for two people but would be easy to sail singlehanded as well.
